Wow, the forecast was definitely right- 100% rain from 6-8pm but still 13 awesome runners (including Kevin who clocked up his 10th run) came to Coventry GoodGym to run 8 km to get to Eric Williams House

After a reluctant start, we soon headed off in good cheer to our task. The route out involved dodging puddles as we ran to get to our destination but spirits weren't dampened and the fantastic team of runners kept each other going. Once at the task, we were met by Terri, the task was introduced, tools were gathered and roles taken and we got on with the task.

At present the garden is rather over run with brambles and moss so our task was to clear the bramble and tidy the flower beds so that the garden can be used more by the residents. As ever, the team set to and soon were completing elements of the task unperturbed by the rain. As this is quite a large garden area we planned this to be a two visit task, we will be returning in early September.

Before we knew it, our time was up, the area was tidied and squash was consumed before setting off and partaking in a Fartlek- speed play- on our return to Drapers. Along the way, massive puddles had formed which were great for puddle jumping or shoe cleaning :)

It was great, after stretching, to relax/dry and enjoy a drink with those that could stay on a little unofficial social. Have great summers, those of you who are going away and see the rest of you either on Saturday (at parkrun) or next Tuesday. Liz x
